This build is fast, the loading times are great and the game plays smoothly in-mission. However, when playing the FS1 Port, I am unable to proceed from one mission to the next. When I warp out, die or try to return to the flight deck, the game crashes to desktop.
This could be the end-of-mission crash from the talking head HUD animations. If you go into the HUD Config and turn off talking heads and it stops crashing then we'll know for sure. If that doesn't help then please let me know. Also, if this is only happening in a particular mission please identify which one since some missions seem to trigger this more than others and it would help me when debugging.
I have got problems with the OpenGL option. Everything becomes very very dark..you can barely see a thing (missions and menues).
The gamma slider has been modified to work the same in OpenGL as it does in D3D. The default gamma setting of 1.80 would make it a bit dark so try lowering it and see if that makes a difference. A setting of 1.00 provides no adjustment to the gamma setting. Some hardware doesn't support this at all so if that turns out to be the case please let me know what vid card and drivers you are using.
